Verdict

DUNUM and Casanova were third and fourth respectively over an extended mile in a similar race here on Tuesday with several of today’s rivals unplaced. Natalia Lupini’s gelding best for much of the journey that day and has a good chance of swift compensation. Ado McGuiness has a strong hand as Laugh A Minute is usually thereabouts in races of this nature. Earls won a premier handicap at Cork in May when last seen over this trip while Mutasarref has a touch of class and has been lightly campaigned this term. The Kublers have booked Seamie Heffernan for Percy's Lad, who is another who hasn’t been over-raced this season, while Hotrocket is on a hat-trick but upped in grade. Current Option won this last year off a higher mark but was one of those behind the selection here earlier in the week.
